I grew up a meat-loving carnivore but lately I can't stand anything about meat, especially the knowledge of consuming something that used to be a breathing, living thing with legs and a face. Now I go for the vegan "meats" that taste so much better than real meats ever did, and my body feels a lot better now too without all the toxic animal chunks rotting away in it. Plus I've lost a little weight already.

I'm struggling to do what is right for my body. Having arthritis makes life difficult. Veganism is my goal. Fruits and veggies make sense. To be blunt, I want a life, not just to be present. Your video is inspiring.

I went plant based a long time ago but i quickly lost 80 lbs by diet change alone and have been the same weight for years now. I lost 9 sizes on just my pants. Im a short guy so it is terribly hard to find clothing now but i guess thats a good problem lol. What you eat is the most important thing you can do for yourself. My only regret was that i didnt do it sooner and while i was in my 20s haha.

[@wellnesscanceradvocate8564]

This was so inspiring. I have about 40-50 lbs of weight to lose and sometimes it feels like I never will. I’m 5’4 and 180lbs. My goal weight is 130-140 lbs. In 2015 I weighed about 125-130 lbs. I believe poor eating and meds have made me gain weight, but before this time I’ve always been petite. Thank you for your time and video. It has encouraged me to keep moving forward, soon I will start a plant based diet and I’m already working out. I’ll get there! ^_^

I cried watching your story. I relate to you as a female trying to loose weight. The trying on clothes crying sessions I've had them WAY too many times. I recently decided to become vegetarian. And right now i am taking this a day at a time. I do not want to be unhealthy anymore. I am so tired of how I have been feeling. I only hope I can see the results not just with weight loss but a lot of issues that I am facing. I feel very confident about eating this way. And I hope I too can one day look back and laugh at how i felt one day.☺

I am also 6'5". Just started being vegan and I am 76 yrs young. Only just started 3 weeks ago and have lost 14 lbs. My wife is not on board yet but definitely could use this program so I have to do this on my own. Started this time at 265 lbs. I am lazy so I am blending my fruits and vegetables. I started doing this 3 times a day but now I am down to twice a day. I am doing this for health reasons. I am a new diabetic, have high cholesterol, high blood pressure, 3rd stage kidney failure, irregular heartbeat, fatty liver. My doctor has recommended stanton for high cholesterol and glipizides for high blood sugar. so I am hoping to reverse some or all of these conditions. I was shooting for may 220 but you look amazing at 180. I was 185 when i graduated from high school but by the end of my freshman year was 235 because of a milk machine an beer. Have never lost any of it since then. My highest was 280. Wish me luck.

🥀 Hi ! I started watching Yazemeenah Rossi's KZbin video today, with Shannon as her guest, and I had to stop watching so I could watch this video first, so I'd understand the weight loss journey you were speaking about. WOW !! GREAT JOB, you two !! I'm inspired by you both ! I've been on a better eating, daily exercise regimen since Feb. of this year (2021) beginning at 201 lbs, and am currently weighing in at 168.8 lbs. I feel so much better ! What jolted me into this healthier lifestyle was my Dr telling me if my blood sugar continued to creep up, we'd be having a pre-meds-diabetes talk at my next appointment. It scared me ! I went home and began planning the following day ! Whew !! I am so much happier, and feel stronger than I have in years !! Did I mention I'm turning 60 this month ?? lol Thank you so much for sharing your journey with us !! Good luck in all your future endeavors, and God Bless !! Love you guys ! 😍🌹

[@luvmysnowful]

Thank you so much for sharing your inspirational stories. I have Volleyed back and forth about being vegan over the years. More specifically because of the animal cruelty. However January 30th of this month I was told I had an a1c of 13. That really floored me and made me take a serious look at my health and what I could do about it aside from medicating myself which I did not want to do. I Have a special needs child who is 16 and relies on me for all of his care. I decided that I cannot afford in any way shape or form to be diabetic and of course to continue to increase my health risks of all sorts of disease. So I decided once and for all to go vegan. So far I have lost 24 lbs. But more importantly I feel so much better!! I was having serious bouts of gastroparesis which has subsided and I have not experienced anymore since I changed my diet. I have cleaned out my pantry and replaced it with everything I need to keep myself on the straight and narrow and so I have what I need at my disposal to make recipes. I have found that I do not miss meat at all. Actually what has been harder is the dairy. I have never drank milk but I do like creamer yogurt and sometimes cheese. So I am experimenting with the dairy free products and am thinking about trying to make my own cheese. I do not mean to this comment to become so long here it is. Thanks again I wish you continued Health on your Journeys.

[@JackJack-wy5yk]

I began my journey Wednesday, four days ago. It is a struggle and I am dealing with night time hunger. Late night eating is a hard habit to break. I am enjoying the food and I really only want meat when I get really hungry. I'm doing better than I thought I would. Thank you for the inspiration.

[@noonmanji2086]

Well done guys. I can really relate to yr stories. I struggled with weight since a child too. I use food to comfort, when I feel stressed to eat more. My weight was a yoyo, i used exercise to keep me trimmed. When I took on full time job 4 months ago, stopped exercising worked longer more stressed. The job and the promotion gained me a stone! In the last 11days I decided to go plant based life style. I love it, for the first time I felt I can truly eat good carbs. Rice, veg, beans and potatoes makes me feel full! I dont binge or overeat as much anymore. Lost 5-6lbs in 11days too! Way to live, more happier inside. 🙏😘

[@elizabethrodriguez7363]

Thank you so much I just decided to become vegan and it's been a journey for two years trying to wean myself of milk then cheese and now meat. I am happy I made the decision. I did it because my cholesterol is high and doesn't go down no matter what I do so I finally decided that I needed to stop eating meat as well. I am also working out 3 times a week so hopefully the next time I see my doctor my cholesterol levels have gone down. You guys are really inspiring and you make a really cute couple. God Bless you and family...

I too got my kickstart with the Eat To Live plan. Dr. Thurman's plan led to my total plant based eating lifestyle. Total loss 132 pounds but now living within a 122 pound maintenance range. It's been hard but amazing. I enjoyed this video so much. I've not read the BLE book but my friend has and has made a different in her. I've eat her her videos online and have enjoyed them. I have an erratic exercise schedule right now, and don't know how much that is playing into my stall out. Or so it seems. Maybe my mind needs a break from it all. Looking back reminds where I've been and I desire to move forward.

[@emjhendrickson8290]

DIY Couple, ya'll are super awesome and encouraging! I know exactly how you used to feel and I'm on a journey to be healthy. I just lost 20 lp in 1 month. The only thing i did was quit junk food. This includes candy, soda, pizza, potato chips, fast food, energy drinks, etc. I really love bread and diary so i decided to quit those too. To replace the junk food, I ate kale, spinach, olive oil, coconut oil, fruits, and once a week home baked potato. To replace the creamer in my coffee, I had KetoCreamer (which was really great). I did have yogurt once a week. I did have a serving of a desert 1 time a week on weekends. Now that I'm entering my second month, I realize that I need to eat more protein. Way back when i was in college, I was working out an hour a day and eating really healthy salads with a side of meat. Due to fatigue, my metabolism collapsed and I just started eating everything bad- consequently I gained 100 lb. Looking back now I realize I wasn't eating enough protein. I over worked my muscles and didn't feed them right. Now, I'm considering becoming a vegan and looking at veggies high in protein. I want to be healthier than i was in college! And i want to be this healthy for life!

But I am not taking them. I refuse to live my life on pharmaceuticals and with side effects that pile up as I get sicker and sicker.

I just bought a high powered blender that will get the stuff hot inside if I want to make a nut-based cheese sauce. looking forward to using my insta pot too.

Love how you guys do things together.

Well done! Husband & I are staying on track with our wellness goals too. We did struggle with our weight at first a few years into our marriage due to stress & environmental factors. Now, we live with a more growth mindset and champion-like fighting spirit every single day. In fact, we are in our early 40s, but we have more energy and endurance level than our twenty or thirty something couple friends and family. Amazing how life is a lot (lovely) and so with so much purpose. to

At age 62, and Only one week into my vegan journey but feel great and most importantly, my life long battle w hemaroids has completely disappeared! I know this is TMI but makes me very happy!

[@lizagarcia2117]

Thank you for sharing your journey! It is extremely helpful to me and I'm sure to others, I was never over weight until I was a senior in high school I had extra +10 lbs. First year in collage I gained 40lbs, it was literally over 1st semester, it was HORRIBLE! I continued to gain 5lbs a year for the next 8 years, I made it to 238 same weight as Mike Tyson heavy weight champ, nothing champ about my weight. I was infertile (PCOS) unhappy and low energy no stamina. I had a gastric bypass at age 27 lost 103lbs I felt great and looked great, I gave birth to two wonderful children and I had gained back 30 lbs in 6 years, again same rate 5 lbs a year, I decided to get fit again, work out 5 days a week for 1 hour a day and cut out dairy, bread and sugar it worked, I had lost 40lbs and put on a lot of muscle, looked like a superhero, i felt great only lasted 3 years. Now I have gained back 45 lbs in last 7 years. I will read both books you used and implement your healthy lifestyle I'm now 44.5 and I don't want health issues, I will finally do this correctly, no surgery no over exercising something sustainable and healthy. Thanks a Million!!!

Thanks for your video, what an amazing transformation and a healthy one as well. Way to go! I've been vegan for just over a year and never plan to go back. I feel 100% better, feel extra good about the environment and animals too.

[@brothertn708]

That DIY Couple sorry about the comment, I didn’t think you’d read it, I’m so embarrassed now 😊... I’m gonna delete it. Both of you look great! Kudos on the weight loss! I’m glad John eats eggs! I eat raw eggs and they give me so much energy and I luv raw meat 🥩

[@mimigrace7591]

Do y’all eat white potatoes and white rice??

[@janismurray6335]

Can you eat cooked vegan food and feel the same and have the same results?

[@janismurray6335]

That DIY Couple good :) because I started cooked vegan 2 days ago today is day 3.... I’ve got my husband on it and my two boys! Family upgrade 😆

[@onesam2go]

Amazing!! Thanks for sharing your success and struggles! Encouraging 😊

[@donwetherell8738]

It's expensive losing so much weight, a whole new wardrobe, I know I did it with a plant based life. You both look really great. Be very proud of yourselves, be and stay healthy. Get some yoga in your life now and at least 2 children! Namaste.

[@ruthsmith7614]

Thanks That DIY Couple for sharing this. You have both been transformed and now have a new lease of life which is fantastic. I have been vegan for nearly seven years and i am at my healthiest ever. I was 50 when i went vegetarian and 56 when i went vegan for the animals not knowing i would feel this great. No more Asthma which i had for over 25 years and taking inhalers and no more IBS problems. My immunity is so much stronger and energy levels have increased. Doctors have very little training in food nutrition and out of ignorance and supporting the pharma industry they are over prescribing drugs which are a quick fix for most health issues which can be treated and even cured with a plant based diet. Drugs are poisons and are not the answer as they all have side effects and are unnatural and addictive which can lead to many health problems. Plants have the power to heal and cure and as the old saying goes.....let food be our medicine and medicine be our food....natural plant foods that is.....

[@theresam6251]

Thank You both, so very much for sharing your stories 🤗 I totally understand how hurtful and hard it’s been, it’s only been 2 weeks since I’ve started making healthy eating changes and I’m 52 yrs young. I have gotten just so tired of being tired, depressed and over weight... just everyday feeling like Crap!! and all the health issues I suffer, i’m at my highest weight I’ve ever been and wear a size 20 pants..so I can totally relate!! the past 2 weeks I have slowly gotten better with what I eat and how I cook, and have cut out unhealthy foods and snacks, and am on the road to taking far better care of myself!!! I have aways to go but with Jesus by my side, I’m pushing forward and will make it through,New Year-New Mindset-New lifestyle!!! I pray the best for you both, Jesus Loves you❤️and thanks again for sharing your stories
